NEW LIGHT FOR CARS.
Electricity Generated by the Friction
OF Car Wheels.
GDoston lierald,1


Pullman, Of palace car fame, is contem-
plating the use Of newly invented scheme
by which cars will be lighted from cleo
tricity generated from the friction of car
wheels. This system is the invention Of j.
W. Hoffman, Of the Pullman company.
Mr.. Hoffman has been engaged for two
years in perfecting It. 1t has never been
described In print, and Mr.. Hoffman was
only induced to describe 1t by knowledge
of the fact that Mr.. Pullman intended to-
introduce 1t in this country. lie said:
ave take the motor power from the car
axle and have 1t run on to clutch device.
A belt is driven by pulley on the axle, aud
runs to this clutch device, the object Of
which 10 to run the dynamo In the same di.
rection all the time when the cars require
lighting. While the train Is in motion we
will get the light direct from the dynamo.
AT the same time certain amount OF cleo
tricity is running into the secondary storage
battery. The secondary battery is to light
the train when the wheels cease their reyo-
luton and the cars are standing in the de
pots"
"Will you attempt to light more than one
car from single dynamo ~
"No; each car will have a separate plant,
! so that cur can be disconnected and at.
| tached to any train desired. The dynamo
| will be set In a box and made fast under the
| car, swinging about 10 inches above the
| track. A 30.light incandescent machine
| can be used, 80 inches in length by l2 inches
| high. Any automatic dynamo eau be util-
lied. Wires from the dynamo will run up
six lamps through an automatic cutoff.
| When approaching a station, and the motor
| force decreases with the slackening OF the
train, the cutoff acts automatically to
throw In circuit the current from the sec
| ondary battery. When the train starts
| again, and reaches its normal speed, the
| secondary current is shut off, and the
| dynamo current is cut Of. When the sec
| ondary battery is sufficiently charged, a
friction clutch on the axle may be used, by
which the whole dynamo system may be
rendered imperative. When car reaches
the end Of the route, and is obliged to
stand still for several hours, lever, which
a porter can operate, throws the dynamo
out OF SERVICE"
| "DO you get uniform current whether
the train runs fast or slow?"
| "Yes, have invented device called a
| governor, which regulates the speed OF the
| dynamo. no matter what the speed OF ths
train is. This governor compels uniform
dynamo action. 1t is located in connection
with the clutch device. The light will he
cheaper, and Of course, much safer than
OIL"
"Does the dynamo run in the same direc-
tion whether car wheels run backward or
| forward?n
| "Yes. How to produce that effect was
the great problem to be solved. A 10.horse
| power machine has been constructed which
when applied to q train, always runs the
dynamo In the same direction, whether the
motion OF the wheels be forward or reverse
The entire appliance In all Its details 1:
automatic In its action, and the only care II
will require will be an occasional oiling.n

EVOLUTION IN GIRLS NAMES.
How Beauty C0ntinues Its Sway Under
n Change of Name.
Tpnrtlond mo \ proro

ltortanu lMe ffess.l
In recent communication to the Bangor
Historical Magazine Joseph Williamson,
esq, of Belfast, has given list Of mar
rlages in Belfast town from 177i to 1914
inclusive. The names OF the most Of
them are familiar to-day. We find
John, James, Charles, jacob, Henry,
William, &c, occurring again and again.
1t is interesting to observe the names OF
the women. Among them are Jarah, De-
borah, Lois, Keziah, Priscilla, Barsheba,
Theodate, Narassa, Grizel, Rachel, Phoebe,
The 1l2 girls used but forty-1ye Chris
tian names among them. Polly, Betsy,
Sally, Jane, Susannah, Nanny, Abigail, and
Mehitable, very popular names among our
graIdmothers, have been put away, like
the old ball dresses aud high-heeled
clippers that figured IN society in the days
of General Knox. To day distinguished
by such names as Annie, Alice, Mabel,
Jennie, and Grace, the beauty transmitted
from other generations continues Its per.
petual sway. Another thing noticeable is
the disappearance OF such quaint names as
Wealthy, Love, Charity, and Temperance
They have gone with the Pollies aud
sallies. Delight alone among the names
the old Puritan sentiment yet sur
wives. Is this evolution Of names
only the result of change OF customY Or
isit natural dependent upon other causes ?
Perhaps the names OF to-day are more re-
fined aud delicate sounds when spoken,
and therefore more fitting to the young
ladies OF 1887, who are admitted, OF course,
to have added the refinement of the present
to the Inherited beauty OF the past.

Cincinnati Times Star: One OF the most
interesting incidents Of the late war Is that
told of Gen. Lytle just before he received his
fatal wound at Chiekamauga. He had made
his brilliant charge into the midst OF the
enemy, where all chances OF retreat were
cut off. Suddenly he thrust his hand into
his coat pocket, drew forth a pair OF kid
gloves and began putting them on. Asked
by an aid the reason for this movement, so
unexpected under such thrilling clrcum.

"wHAT FERs CAT FUR"
The Varied and Valuable Uses to
Which Poor Pussv's HIDE Is Pat.


1t is estimated that not less than 1900, 900
kittens are annually brought into this sinful
world. OF these the great majority are
miserably drowned-a practice which ia
destined shortly to be done away with by
the recognition Of the cat as a fur-bearlng
animal. Rugs of selected maltese and
tortoise-shell are already quite eX-
pensive, and excellent limitations Of various
furs are made in this material. Taxider-
mists, too, are advertising for kittens by the
thousand to stuff for ornamental purposes
At present the only purpose to which they
are applied in this country is the manu-
facture Of carriage robes, but vast numbers
Of them are sent to Europe. where they are
In great demand for coats and hats, dress
Ing gown lining, and other garments.
The pelts come from oil parts OF the
country. They are gathered by professional
collectors, vino supply them by the quantity
at regular schedule rates. common cat
skin is worth cents, a pure maltese 10
cents, and black one 25 cents. The
cheap kind must be dyed before making
up, but the black and maltese are
prettier with their color unaltered. A
carriage robe OF the best cat fur is worth
from $40to $50. There are always plenty OF
stray cats running wild In the rural districts.
The Maine woods are full Of them. They
breed wonderfully fast, and It is good sport
popping them off the fences aud stone walls
along the roadside.
